Just to check again if this game holds up, just played it again (old school, no save states) and managed to beat it without losing a continue or even a single turtle (few close calls though), I did spent some time farming the scrolls for all turtles though (finally making mike and ralph not useless), this didn't take as long as I remember.
I was surprised I still remembered where the route to get all the bombs on the water level, and the road to finish the 3rd Level.
4th level I went with my gut on where to go, I just remembered that you have to go for the levels that scroll to the right to go forward, and you eventually get to the end, the closing spike walls near the end are still nerve wraking.
5th level got lucky with the technodrome and found it in my first try with all my turtles in good health.
Final level went almost full scroll weapon while avoiding the jetpack guys specially on the last corridor, shredder is easy with the scroll too.
The game does hold up and it's still great, and the music slaps
